Thinking of a sunny retirement in Spain? Make sure you’ve got an expat funeral plan.
Thinking of a sunny retirement in Spain? Make sure you’ve got an expat funeral plan so you can kick back and relax knowing everything's sorted.
Spain is the perfect place to retire, thanks to the great weather, low cost of living and thriving expat community. With almost 400,000 Brits currently living in Spain, almost half are over 65 and enjoying a sunny retirement in Spain.
If you’re thinking of moving to Spain for retirement, chances are you’ve already thought about the basics like accessing your UK state pension, registering as a resident, and of course finding a new home to call yours. But there’s one other major life event that you should plan for if you’re moving to Spain.
Funerals in Spain are very different to those in the UK. Even if you’ve had experience arranging a funeral for a loved one back home in Britain, there are some key differences that might catch you unawares in Spain.
British pensioners in Spain often struggle with the Spanish funeral system. For example, funerals take place much quicker – sometimes within 48 hours – and delays can cost hundreds in daily mortuary fees.
Then there’s the logistics of finding and choosing a local Funeral Director. It’s difficult enough to shop around for funeral services in the UK, let alone in a foreign country with language barriers.
All these potential difficulties mean added stress on top of what is already an emotional time. That’s why if you want to retire to Spain from the UK, you should think about an expat funeral plan – for both your peace of mind, and your family’s.
Funeral plans for British pensioners in Spain
A funeral plan is a simple way of paying for and arranging your funeral in advance. It makes everything easier for your loved ones when the time comes, so they won’t have to navigate an unfamiliar system in a foreign language.
A funeral plan makes everything simpler for your loved ones, giving them support when they need it most, and giving you peace of mind so you can enjoy your retirement in Spain.
